	The '''compton family''', otherwise known as the '''aristoxenean family''', tempers out the [[Pythagorean comma]], 531441/524288 = {{monzo\| -19 12 }}, and hence the fifths form a closed 12-note circle of fifths, identical to [[12edo]]. While the tuning of the fifth will be that of 12edo, two [[cent]]s flat, the tuning of the larger primes is not so constrained, and the point of these temperaments is to improve on it.
